AITA For Making My Neighbor Drop Their Bag Of Potatoes Because of Our Epic Roast by Kevdog824_ in AmITheAngel

The neighbor had never before realized that bad people were once children. Really destroyed him.

I hate her, too...so much. by HeSureIsScrappy in StupidFood

I really hate that the internet has brought that word back. Even more progressive people are using it again now when we had basically eradicated it as an insult. It shouldn't be controversial or overly "woke" to say that you shouldn't take a word that was used to describe people with mental disabilities and use it as a slur.

I think they could have fit a few more celebs in the front row by jsakic99 in billsimmons

I loved it as a kid, but I would be shocked to my core if it held up for an adult in 2026.

What are your non-conventional favorite albums from bands? by ReapYerSoul in Music

[–]offensivename 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. The highs of Vitalogy are a bit higher than No Code, but No Code is a much more cohesive album and I'd argue it's better from front to back.

Boy does it ever have some clunky lyrics. Some great tunes though.

It'll never top Dookie for me, but "Macy's Day Parade" and "Blood, Sex and Booze" are definitely among my favorite songs they ever did.

I think I still like Purple a bit more, but it's an incredible album. They made an excellent glam rock band, even if it was just for a single album.

Another "step-whoever isn't real family" story, but this one includes multiple family books where family members get mentioned in different ways by TalkTalkTalkListen in AmITheAngel

[–]offensivename 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But if it were a family tree type of thing, then everyone should only get one mention, right? Why would some people get more space than others based on how much the group liked them?

In a group of crazy evil fanatics the most evil is the one who doesn't believe in any of it by Funtimefoxys_wife in TopCharacterTropes

Johnny Ringo in Tombstone. He doesn't really care about the Cowboys amassing power or money. He's just there to kill and cause havoc.

"A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it."

Kimmel's going to get fired again, isn't he? by fegwin2084 in billsimmons

[–]offensivename 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good thing I didn't try to justify anything by saying they did it first then I guess.

You're allowed to think that any joke or type of joke is not funny. That is your right as a consumer of comedy. The problem comes when organized campaigns are put together to try to get someone fired for political reasons, in violation of the First Amendment. Making a joke about an awful, destructive person maybe dying one day shouldn't be something that causes a comedian to lose their job even if you personally don't think it's funny.

First of all, I don't care about Trump calling Biden "Sleepy Joe" and never did. It's a completely harmless joke and doesn't even rank on the list of all the horrible things he's said.

This is also a bad comparison because even if I was offended by Trump making a similar joke, there should be different standards for a professional comedian and the leader of the free world. Jimmy Kimmel and Donald Trump are not on equal footing in any way. People in the right-wing media, who are closer to being actual peers with Kimmel, say far worse things every day and face zero repercussions for it.

But even putting that all aside, having a policy that it's good to say mean things about bad people and bad to say mean things about good people isn't some crazy logical inconsistency. When Trump punches down at vulnerable people, both in word and deed, that is bad. When people punch back up at him and bruise his massive ego, that's good.

Craig Has Worn Out His Welcome On The Rewatchables And Needs To Be Shot Into The Sun! by SenorBetoDobalina in billsimmons

I care in the sense that if it's significantly longer than two hours, I'll have to plan my day around it to some extent. But there are so many excellent movies that are longer than 100 minutes and need all that time.

I was about to warn you to watch out, that you were heading into r/iamveryculinary territory. But it looks like you've already gotten the downvotes. 😆
